Hmm so your saying i CAN make games through Unreal Engine 4 WITHOUT having to type a single letter of C++ Code

Yes.

@IDGam3r;606362

Would doing a full on HD 3d Commander Keen remake-ish game be simple?

Not ‘simple’ but with the side scroller template in UnrealEngine you’ve got a good base to start.

@IDGam3r;606362

Advice comes from those who have experience, and experience is the best teacher

Correct, and the only way you will get experience is by starting.

@IDGam3r;606362

Chances are if something isn’t working the way i want it to, i will more than likely get fustrated

I always get frustrated when I can’t get things to work…which is why I’ve spent half of my Sunday fighting with the APEX Destructible features in UE…but I got there in the end, and now I have ‘Destructible meshes’ stored away in the mental toolbox.

@IDGam3r;606362

Patience is something i don’t have, although i will admit i am trying to develop patience

Gotta have patience, no way round it.

@IDGam3r;606362

Wait, did you say what i thought you said

Yes.

Long story short, i personally wish i never had Autism, because everyone treats me differently, i prefer to be treated the same as every other tom, **** and harry on thye planet

How would my Autism be a hinderance, i think it’s my mentality that is the hinderance

Impossible, i got so many things around me that can distract me, my tape measure, my dvd player, my bed in the bedroom, i got more distractions than a cat has lives

Repetition helps me to remember things, one off things i do then forget

Flow Charts, the term i remember, the method of the term i have forgotten

Well, you are different, at least you know it when you’re young ( I didn’t). You’ll probably need to but a bit more effort into removing distractions, headphones and instrumental repetitive music work for me.

Use whatever method for learning suits you best. I have a very accurate visual memory so when I’m learning/designing something I draw it in shapes and arrows and program flow, then I have a nice perfect image of it in my head to recall. Can’t do it with text, or numbers though. I suck at maths, but luckily you don’t really need to understand the maths in gamedev, you just need to know what mathematical methods produce what results, the how and why is largely irrelevant.
